Funny you should ask Queen, I just heard from Skeebo on YIM a few minutes ago. He's got some news he wants to share with the forum - I'm waiting for an email from him with the details, which I'll post.

Hey, I seem to keep missing him and I have YIM. I hope things is going well with him and I hope his news is good news. Last I remember he had a few issues too he was trying to deal with.

A few days ago I was wondering where our very own Tim Hunter was, but then he was back. How about SAE, kypozguy (Marc), ACinKC, among others? There are a lot more that I've PM'ed with in years back (it seems so strange to say 'years back', but it is going on two years since my HIV diagnosis and joining AM) but haven't heard from in ages. I always wonder what's happened to people I've known, not just through here, but at various jobs, socially, schools, etc. I hope they're all doing ok.

What is it with early November? Lots of folks ducked out right then. I mean, yeah...the holidays, but heck.

What about bucko, he seems to have disappeared too

HIV is certainly character-building. It's made me see all of the shallow things we cling to, like ego and vanity. Of course, I'd rather have a few more T-cells and a little less character. Randy Shilts

We seem to be missing a bunch of our NC folks. There's Amosboy (Brooks) and a couple of guys from the western part of the state and one or two from around Charlotte. I sure haven't seen Whizzer in ages, either. Although not from NC, what ever happened to lydgate (Jay)? I do wonder about people when they just seem to disappear.

Tim, sweetie....so nice of you to bump this and keep those "missing" in our thoughts.

I've communicated with RAB recently, he is o.k. I sure miss Bucko; I'm sure Matty knows how he is doing, hope he is well....

I got a lovely Christmas card from Jonathan. I miss him so much in the forums.

When I scan back over my birthday lists from previous years, it is sad to see how many have "dropped out" of sight.....but we have new ones constantly coming in as well. I think our most popular "newcomer" lately is Mini and her Mom! So glad they are with us.

Lisa (sweetieweasel) I hope you are o.k. honey....and Lis, she rarely posts anymore....I did receive a call from her during the holidays.

Love to all who are "missing in action".....you may be gone, but you are definitely not forgotten!

Alan

PS - a recent "comeback" was made by Lonewolf (Bruce) glad to see him back with us!
